Forty-eight artists international artists, including the likes of Steve Caballero, Steve Olson, Natas Kaupus, Mark Gonzales, Benny Gold and Jason Jessee; plus 30-odd Aussie artists, including Beastman, Ben Brown, Buttons, Otis Carey, Rhys Cooper, Marcus Dixon, Elliott Numskull, and Sam Octigan have forged sculptures and prints that deserve a bit of your eyeball time.
